Interval Training - Perfect Fourths

Joshua

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.

0:00 | 24:00

Perfect fourths are important because they’re stable but slightly more active than perfect fifths, showing up constantly in melodies and harmonic movement. As you listen, notice how the interval feels strong but a little more directional, like it wants to move somewhere. You’ll hear perfect fourths all over real music, in melodies, bass lines, chord movement, and common progressions and once your ear locks into that sound, it becomes much easier to recognize how music is moving.

Some listening examples:


“Auld Lang Syne - Traditional


“Love Me Tender” - Elvis Presley


“Rolling in the Deep” - Adele


“Hey Joe” - Jimi Hendrix


“Moonlight Sonata” - Beethoven
